She is stirring up the dance floors with rough and filthy beats, varied with melodic and vocal parts.Her sets are innovative and creative. She brings in her own style but is also able to adapt to the crowd, spontaneously playing “what feels right.” This is how Chayah’s sound stays in people’s heads and how she is able to differentiate herself from other DJs out there. “Techniques are one thing — Choosing the right tracks and creating a certain mood or vibe is what makes the difference.” It is her aim to get people to let loose on the floor and let them get down to the hard driving beats.Selected References:Klan 31 // BogotáGlow // BangkokDimension // TokyoBeton Brut // SeoulRo La voix d'un fou éclairé par la lune ISSAM MATHLOUTHI Ce podcast est plus un devidoir de sentiment explorant chacune de mes émotions tout en ayant comme fil rouge la découverte d'une musique et d'un film.
